Commission a permanent monument for the Fourth Plinth dedicated to all NHS staff
The Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square, London, has remained without permanent display for over 150 years. It is a fitting location in the heart of our Capital to express our gratitude for NHS staff who have fought for us during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic.
The commitment, courage and selflessness shown by all NHS staff in the battle against COVID-19 is deserving of permanent, national recognition, having served us fearlessly and tirelessly, often at great risk to themselves and their families.
